What a great pub - if you have the chance try the Nelson in Mudeford. Ringwood beer, Thai food, glorious garden. Must become a regular.

At least I managed to vote - it was very civilised in Bournemouth East as you'd expect.

Is it me or are a lot more cyclists now using the pavement rather than the road? So dangerous. Children and the elderly need to be safe.

Am looking for a skittles league in Bournemouth or Christchurch that needs teams or players. Any ideas anyone?

I am so going to miss Ashes to Ashes, the best TV in years.

Hawaii? Spain? Greek Islands? No, it's Dorset on a perfect day. Just try getting decent beer, Dorset Knobs, and Blue Vinney in Hawaii!

Lousy weather here on the coast - this could be the day for me to start running again so nobody witnesses it!

England players under orders from clubs to play badly so agents won't get many approaches for them over summer.

There aren't many clocks in publics places these days - I know, forgot my phone today.

Went for a walk by the beach today and managed to coincide with the only shower of the day! Nobody around, eerie look of the cliffs - wow

Hope I'm not being unkind but isn't it great when all the grockles have gone home.

Drinking 'Durdle Door' at Urban Beach in Boscombe and feeling no pain

Two recent visits confirm 'Urban Beach' in Boscombe as a great place for a drink. Bonus of great Dorset Brewery Company beers.
